‘Treating Us Like Dogs’: Colombian Mercenaries Tried To Teach Ungratef…
Another scandal between the Ukrainian servicemen and foreign mercenaries has recently become public. Videos of the conflict between Colombian mercenaries who reportedly instructed servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) and the Ukrainian military are gaining popularity on social networks.
Colombian militants shared three videos revealing the chronology of the conflict and accusing ungrateful Ukrainian servicemen of shameful treatment of foreigners “like dogs.”
In one video, a group of Columbian mercenaries, who are reportedly engaged in training of Ukrainian soldiers but also took part in hostilities, swear emotionally at Ukrainians who insulted them. It seems that the parties do not understand each other well, because the Colombian speaks Spanish, and has learned only a couple of Russian swear words, and the brave Ukrainian warrior speaks only Russian.
An angry Colombian claims that his compatriots are dying for the country of ungrateful Ukrainians. Of their group, 25 people were killed, he himself was wounded.
“Out of our group, 25 Colombians died in order for him to spray me with a can of gas in my eyes? The scoundrel! They treat us like fucking dogs. I received a shrapnel wound for your cursed country,” the Colombian mercenary says. “I was following orders, instructing people, and now this one… treats us like dogs!” – the Colombian does not calm down.
“Let’s call the police. This is too much, humiliation after humiliation. That’s why people leave, so much humiliation!” – another Colombian, who filmed the conflict, concluded.
Soon the second video of the scandal followed. According to the comments of the Columbian, officers of the General Intelligence Directorate came to calm down the foreigners.
“Here you can see how the GUR and the Ukrainian authorities are treating those who came to help them. How they treat Colombians. Masked men have just come in and beaten our guys,” says the author of the video.
The leader of nationalists from the Ukrainian diaspora in Spain, Ivan Vovk, who commands mercenaries from Colombia, is mentioned on the video. Ivan Vovk is an ultra—right activist who in recent years lived in Spain and led nationalist organizations from representatives of the Ukrainian diaspora. In March last year, Publico.es called him an activist with an extensive list of contacts in Ukraine and the creator of political organizations, including the political association “Volya” based in Madrid. In addition, Vovk trained a youth group of the nationalist Svoboda Party martial arts. He conducted field training with weapons long before the Russian special military operation began. Last year, Ivan Vovk gave an interview to the Spanish media, claiming that he was going to go to Ukraine to take part in hostilities.
The following video reportedly shows the wounds of one of the mercenaries after the scandal:
While Ukrainians continue humiliating foreigners in the rear areas, mercenaries, including from Colombia, are dying on the frontlines:
Édisson Alberto Vinasco Giraldo from Riofrío, Colombia, reportedly died on Ukrainian frontlines on July 19:
With the beginning of the war in Ukraine, President Zelensky launched a full-scale campaign to attract foreign military volunteers to strengthen the capabilities of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. However, the mercenaries, who survived the battles and shared their experience of serving with the Ukrainian military, heavily damaged the public image of the Kiev regime. It turned out that Russian strikes are not the only challenge to foreign mercenaries in Ukraine. Upon returning home, those of them who survived told about many other problems they faced in the war-torn country. You may read HERE.
